       mailstats - display mail statistics

SYNOPSIS

       mailstats [-c] [-o] [-p] [-P] [-C cffile] [-f stfile]

DESCRIPTION

       The mailstats utility displays the current mail statistics.

       First,  the  time  at  which  statistics  started  being  kept is displayed, in the format
       specified by ctime(3).  Then, the statistics for each mailer are  displayed  on  a  single
       line, each with the following white space separated fields:

              M           The mailer number.
              msgsfr      Number of messages from the mailer.
              bytes_from  Kbytes from the mailer.
              msgsto      Number of messages to the mailer.
              bytes_to    Kbytes to the mailer.
              msgsrej     Number of messages rejected.
              msgsdis     Number of messages discarded.
              msgsqur     Number of messages quarantined.
              Mailer      The name of the mailer.

       After  this  display,  a  line  totaling  the  values  for all of the mailers is displayed
       (preceded with a ``T''), separated from the previous information by a line containing only
       equals  (``='')  characters.   Another  line preceded with a ``C'' lists the number of TCP
       connections.

       The options are as follows:

       -C     Read the specified file instead of the default sendmail configuration file.

       -c     Try to use submit.cf instead of the default sendmail configuration file.

       -f     Read the specified statistics file instead of the statistics file specified in  the
              sendmail configuration file.

       -P     Output information in program-readable mode without clearing statistics.

       -p     Output information in program-readable mode and clear statistics.

       -o     Don't display the name of the mailer in the output.

       The mailstats utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
